Today, I felt manly. I spent almost the entire day peeling paint, power sanding, and applying Spackle for my grandma. Strutting with masculinity, I headed for the shower, only to let out a womanly yelp at a spider hanging at eye level around a corner. Manliness gone. FML

Haha I once creeped some boys in my class out. They found a dead cockroach in the school library while we were having a library hour in English, and tried in a failed attempt to get me to notice them by dropping it on the book I was reading. Didn't look up. Instead I flicked it off and continued reading. Tried it again and i chucked it behind me, keeping my eyes down. Heard a scream, then laughter. Turns out one if the other boys was, lol!

Spiders don't bother me...but I turn into a little girl around wasps. Stepped on a nest as a child and they flew up my pants... There are certain places where you'll never forget the trauma of multiple wasp stings...

11 - Have you ever seen a cockroach swim? I surprised one once by turning on the light and it fell head first into the sink. It started gyrating madly with its legs spinning like some kind of hook-armed stabbing machine...

The phobias can stem from a series of problems, Amy dealing with childhood. However, many people are afraid because it's an unknown, is the roach in front of me one poisonous? Is the spider that is at the corner dangerous? Many harmless species have a type who is dangerous to humans. Plus, with the ease of bringing animals from one area to a new one, you never know if the creature in front of you isn't a poisonous variety from the Amazon

You misunderstood me. It wasn't derogatory towards women, op just said he screamed like a girl..high pitched. Guys don't normally scream in a high pitched tone. Not that acting like a woman is a bad thing. I'm in the military, I know some tough ass chicks, and I respect them. Not that they act "manly" at work, women typically just have higher pitched voices than we do.

7- Don't start with the ultra-feminist crap.
It's perfectly normal and fine and completely okay for a man to express his 'manliness'. And it's perfectly okay to feel the way he did when he saw the spider. Men were put on this earth to protect women and their children.
He didn't mean any harm mentioning his moment of the lesser masculinity. He wasn't ashamed. He was just saying that it's okay for women to feel that way. Doubting your masculinity because of a spider is okay. Doesn't make women or womanly acts something to be ashamed of. We are supposed to be the ones who are scared and men are supposed to be our protectors. He wasn't being negative towards women. You're just being a sensitive feminist.

I don't need any goddamn man to protect me.
I have a gun, and I sure as hell would use it if needed.
and by the way, feminists have a reason for being 'pysco' or sensitive. we live in a world that is still patriarchal and where women are still fighting to be seen as equal.
we can go 'pysco feminist' if you can ignorantly go 'pysco anti-feminist'.

You're a fucking whiny bitch. We girls will never be equal. Why? Because the god damn sec you get treated like a man you'll scream "OMG IM A GIRL WHY ARE YOU DOING THAT!!!" Take your girls need equal treatment and get the hell out of here.

it's not about being treated like a man. it's about being treated like a person.
I understand there is a stereotype of feminist women, but there are also real feminist women. and I am one of them.
so you can take your rude, stereotypical, misogynistic bullshit and shove it up your ass.
I will always push for equality among gender, race and sexual orientation, and there is nothing anyone can say or call me that will stop me from doing that.

92-
Yet you're the rude cunt who's talking bullshit about the girls who are telling you that YOURE being rude. there will never be equality because there will always be raceist ext. be a cunt for you're goal. I'm sure you'll love the end of the road when everyone hates you.
I get pushing for it. But you have NO right to be a total bitch to everyone who's not on you're side. that's not how you get people to back you up and that's how you turn those who were with you away from you.
Enjoy makeing more people hate girls who want equal rights!!
